[cheers and applause] the new platform of the democrat party you notice i say democrat party. it s really their name. it s not the democratic party. but the real name is the democrat party. i hate the way it sound so that s why i use it. the democrat party. when you see democratic party, it s wrong. there is no name. they should probably change the name if you think about it. the democrat party is radical socialism, venezuela, and open borders. it s now called to me you necessity heard this before. the party of crime. it s the party of crime is what it is. [cheers and applause] and to pay for their socialism which is going too destroy our to destroy our country. democrats want to raid medicare and destroy social security. they want to completely destroy medicare with so-called medicare for all. two months before the country goes out of business. robbing our seniors of the benefits they paid into for their entire lives. giving it to people who don t deserve it. giving it to illegal i will yens who come into our country. okay? republicans want to protect medicare for our great seniors who have earned it and paid for it. and i will always fight for and always protect patients with preexisting conditions. you have to do it. you have to do it. [cheers and applause] some people think that s not a republican thing to do. i don t care. and i will tell you why. all of the republicans are coming into that position now. all of them. we ll do it the right way, too. preexisting conditions are safe. just remember that. preexisting. tell that to the fake news media. the fakeers. the fakeers. but we all have a good time. they will all endorse me for the next election. because if they don t and if for some reason i didn t win, every single media outlet goes bankrupt. can you imagine if they had to cover crazy bernie. who the hell is going to watch? or any of them. how about cory booker. did you watch the performance? he ran newark, new jersey into the ground, and now he wants to be president, right? what was the moment he said he had? i don t think so. i think we take curt douglas at his prime. he ran newark into the ground. now i dream of these people every night. the only thing i worry about is some total unknown nobody ever heard of comes along. but honestly, with what we have done on jobs, on our country, on our military, we are going to talk about our veterans. look in your case, energy, look what we have done on energy. who the hell can beat us? who can beat us? one of these people said recently, and they hated to say it. but trump has actually fulfilled more promises than he promised. it s true. look what we are doing. 4.2% gdp. er point is 3.5 trillion dollars and 10 million jobs. when i took it over, our country was headed south. we were going down. i said 4.2? you would be 4.2 negative. that s the way we were headed. perhaps nothing is more dangerous than the democrats push to abolish very brave people that work for us and that love us and take care of us called i.c.e. they want to abolish immigration enforcement entirely. and they want no borders. they want no borders. let everybody just pour into our country. and they have bad news on that. we set record at the borders, that s in those sections where we haven t been able to get the money because the democrats won t approve it. we have very small margins. people say we are the majority. if somebody has a cold, you can t take a vote. if somebody is not feeling well, we say let s delay the vote for three days. it s so close. that s why we have to get more republicans in. we ll do something that nobody has ever seen before. the democrat party supports totally they love them sanctuary cities where crime pours in and they are protected. that unleashed violent predators like ms-13 into american communities, leaving innocent americans at the mercy of really by the way ruthless animals. really ruthless animals. nancy pelosi said how dare he call a human being an animal. i m sorry, nancy. they don t like guns, they like to use knives because it s more painful and takes a long time. these are really bad people. you know who loves doing it? i.c.e. who the hell wants that job? i.c.e. is doing the job. right? right. i.c.e. is doing that job. these are brave people. they go into towns in long island where i grew up right next to these places. i know them all. it used to be you leave your door open and leave your window open. you go to sleep, nobody thinks. now it s like a fort. they go in like they are liberating a country. this is the united states. i.c.e. goes in, and ms-13, they are afraid of i.c.e., because i.c.e. is much tougher than they are. that s all they fear. they go in and grab them by the neck and throw them the hell into a paddy wagon or take them to jail or throw them the hell out of the country. it s very simple. and they clean out towns. they clean out towns. of truly bad people. dangerous people. you saw what happened. i got to know mothers that have daughters, fathers that have daughters, in many cases daughters and sons. what they do to these incredible kids walking home from school. going home with books to study and do homework. and they intercept them and it s horrible. and we are getting them out. but the democrats it s like they don t even understand that there is a problem. it s incredible. republicans believe america should be a sanctuary law-biding americans, not criminal aliens. [cheers and applause] so republicans, not democrats, they want to end i.c.e. they want to end a lot of things. open borders. how would you like this platform. open borders, we want high taxes. we want crime because basically they are saying crime. they have crime, high taxes and open borders. and we don t want to fund the military. you have no idea how hard it is to get money for the military. it s almost impossible. that was like a full-time job. but we got that money. we got a lot of money. if the democrats got 51 votes in the senate, they would open our nation s borders. they would starve our law enforcement. do we love our law enforcement? seriously. [cheers and applause] i got a tremendous percentage of law enforcement vote. but i think do i get 100%? let s say i didn t. who the hell wouldn t vote for me from law enforcement? we have done a lot. we got a lot of surplus material from the military. we had hundreds of millions of dollars in surplus material, and our previous administration, under no circumstances did they want to give this to law enforcement. it s great:00 p.m. equipment. it keeps the law enforcement safe like trucks that are armored. they didn t want to give it because they thought it presented a wrong image. i gave it. it s all out. we had it. military. we had it sitting in storage rooms all over the country getting old and probably cost us a lot of money. we gave it up to law enforcement and the law enforcement does like us. if you want to secure our border and stop sanctuary cities which then california now they don t want to be sanctuary cities, they want out. they are rebelling in california of all places they are rebelling. if you want to protect american communities from really bad bad crime, then you need to vote republican. patrick morrisey you have got to vote republican. [cheers and applause] this election is about security and it s about prosperity. here are just some of our extraordinary achievements. we have done things that nobody can believe. if i would have used these numbers during the campaign, the fake news would have said it s so ridiculous. it s so ridiculous. how can he say that? i used lower numbers than they said. economic growth last quarter was 4.1 and it was adjusted upward and it s going higher, folks, it s going a lot higher. jobless claims, that s a beauty. jobless. jobless claims just fell to a nearly 50-year low. is that good? is that good? 50-year low. we created over 4 million new jobs since the election. four million. nobody would have said that. if i said we ll create in less than two years, they would have said you have got to be kidding. look at this. we lifted almost 4 mill americans off of food stamps. wow. [cheers and applause] now, number one, we are taking care of people. number two, it doesn t cost us anything. 4 million people, that s a lot of money it costs. we added nearly, it will soon be 600,000 new manufacturing jobs. we weren t supposed to be adding jobs. we weren t supposed to be adding manufacturing jobs. and i will tell you why in the most of incredible of everything is we are doing things with manufacturing companies are pouring back into our country. and they are coming back into your state, they are going to michigan and ohio. they are going to pennsylvania, and north carolina, and south carolina. i was with prime minister abe of japan. he s got many companies moving in. i said look we have a big deficit with you. we take care of your military and we have a deficit. what s going on? he said we are moving many companies into the united states. and he is. take a look. many countries are doing that because i don t like having deficits with he country. and china? we are taking them on very strongly. first time ever. very strongly. and they either open it up to make it fair and don t charge us what they are doing because that s no good, or we just don t do business with them it s a very simple thing. and in four months they have gone way down. i don t want them to go way down. i have great respect for president xi and i have great respect for china. but they are not treating us well. we lost $500 billion, we go to 50, 400, $525 billion. we rebuilt china. how stupid are we? we build a car and we send to it china and they charge a tariff or tax of 25%. they build a car and they send it to the u.s. and it s 2.5% but we don t charge them. they don t have to pay. and i said, why don t they have to pay at least the 2.5% and nobody could tell me why. they charge us 25%. right? we charge them nothing. other than that it s a very fair deal. how stupid is it? so the stupid days are over, folks, i m sorry. [cheers and applause] i love saudi arabia. they are great, king salman, i spoke with him this morning. i said, king, you have got trillions of dollars. without us, who knows what s going to happen. maybe you are not going to be able to keep those airplanes. because you know what? they would be attacked. with us they are totally safe. but we don t get what we should be getting. we are subsidizing their military. i said let me ask you a question. why are we subsidizing the military it s one thing if a country is in deep trouble and in danger and it s a horrible thing going on and it could be something ugly and i millions of people could be killed, but when you have wealthy countries like japan and south korea, why are we subsidizing their military? the problem is, nobody ever asks. they don t ask. [cheers and applause] i mean, with south korea we are paying about 60% of their military. they buy a missile system we are doing great with north korea, i have to say. we are doing great. you know, these dishonest people back there. what did i do? three months ago. so for 80 years they have been working on this stuff. for 25 years they have been working on missiles and nuclear. they got nowhere. they wouldn t even answer our president s phone calls. when they call they told them don t call us. and yes, i agree the rhetoric was unbelievably harsh at the beginning. but we have a very good relationship. we were going to war with north korea. that is what was going to happen. millions of people would have been killed. president obama told me when i sat just before taking office. he said the single biggest problem this country has is north korea. he said he was very close to going to war. but fortunately his time was up. his time was up. [cheers and applause] we would have been in a war. millions of people would have been killed. you have seoul, 30 million people. millions of people would have been killed. and yes, i came in and took a very hard position. and you know what? now we have this great relationship. and let s see what happens. let s see what happens. let s see what happens. but if you think so the fakeers are saying, they don t know what to do. i got hostages back for nothing. obama paid $1.8 bill. i got them back for nothing. we got the remains our great heroes back from many, many years. you don t have any more nuclear testing. in fact they are closing up a lot of the sites. you don t have rockets going up. you don t have missiles going up. and you have people i like kim, he likes me. i guess that s okay. am i allowed to say that? we have come a long way since you know the term. right? we have come a long way. but we could have been in something else i am not saying what s going to happen. who knows. we ll have another meeting. chairman kim would like to have another meeting. the other day i heard one of the anchors say why is president trump giving up so much? i didn t give anything. i didn t give up anything. what did i give up? i gave up nothing. the on thing i gave up was i agreed to meet. boy, we lost a lot, right? i agreed to meet. i gave up nothing. they are just fakers. it s driving them crazy. we gave up so much. obama with the iran deal gave $150 billion and gave $1.8 billion in cash. in cash. you know how much money that is? nobody said he gave up so much except me. that s why i ended the deal. i ended it. gave it to them in cash. it s like twice the size of this thing. that s for a million bucks in $1 bills. can you imagine $1.8 billion. where the hell do you get $1.8 billion in cash. don t let anyone tell you it wasn t for the hostages unless he had something else in mind. we are doing great. that was a big, big problem. and you know what s interesting? when i did it and i was being tough, and so was he. we went back and forth, then we fell in love. he wrote me beautiful letters. and they are great letters. we fell in love. but you know what? they will say donald trump says they fell in love, how horrible. how horrible is that. so unpresidential. and i always tell you it s easy to be presidential, but instead of having 10,000 people trying to get into the packed arena, we would have about 200 people standing right there. it s so easy to be presidential. all i have to do is thank you very much for being here ladies and gentlemen. it s great to see you all. you are great americans. a thousand points of light. which nobody has figured out. and thank you, ladies and gentlemen. hasn t that been exciting. how is west virginia. in the meantime everything will be dying, your coal and everything. no, we have to keep it going the way it s going. do we agree? get patrick in there. we have to keep it going. we have something going nor has ever seen before. he foreign leader that comes to see me in the white house which i see a lot. i see a lot because usually they are treating us unfairly with military, meaning we are paying for their military and i m saying why. we are not going to do it. i said saudi arabia, you are rich, you have got to pay for your military. you have got to pay for your military, sorry. nobody ever asked a question. i have generals, you know, called the military industrial complex. they are great people, they are warriors, but they are not in the line of finance. i say how much are we paying. they say we are paying for it because we are their allies. i say we lost $100 billion on trade. and people slowly but surely, i am telling you, big difference. you see gdp at 4.2. when you see us straighten out these military deals and trade deals, off the charts. household incomes among hispanic americans has just set a record high. i used go around and say what have you got to lose, vote for me, hispanic american, asian-american unemployment, african-american unemployment. the poverty rates for african-americans and hispanic americans, it s incredible. they reached their lowest levels in the history of our country. i am saying african-americans have the lowest unemployment rate in history. why would somebody do well? i think we have kanye west, we have a lot of support. big jim brown. how about big jim brown. how good was he. if he was playing today, he would make a trillion dollars. and he would stand for the flag, too, i tell you. i know him. great. unemployment for americans without high school diplomas. that s a big thing. recently reached the lowest rate ever record. the women s unemployment rate in the united states recently reached its lowest rate in over 65 years. this is something that is personal to you and some other states. we repealed president obama s coal moratorium. we ended the coal-crushing stream protection rule that was killing you. it sounds so beautiful. the epa s so called killer, a clean power plant. it was costing this country a fortune. it has such nice names. such a nice title. it put everybody out of business and took away our strength and took away our wealth. i went through the united states from the job-killing very unfair and very, very expensive paris climate accord. another one. [cheers and applause] a killer. these are killers. they were putting our country out of business. we ended the war on beautiful clean coal. and in just the last year our coal exports have skyrocketed. this is exports to other countries by 60%. do you believe that? the united states is now the number one energy producer in the world. that happened just recently. [cheers and applause] a lot of money in that. we are fixing the one-sided trade deals that have stolen american jobs, drained american wealth, it s been a massive transfer of wealth out of our country. we are bringing it all back. they are all coming back. we reached a deal to replace the horrible nafta, one of the worst trade deals ever. with a brand-new u.s.-mexico trade deal. and we ll see what happens with canada as they come along. they have to be fair. they have right now they have tariffs over 300% on dairy products. that s like a barrier. they have to be fair. but we made the deal with mexico. it s a great deal for both countries. nafta was the worst deal. i signed a ground-breaking trade deal with south korea that will dramatically increase exports of american-made goods. i said you have got to open up your country. now, the democrats will look at any of these deals, they won t read them or know anything about them. they will say what do you think? it s no good, it s terrible. have you read? it don t ask plea that question. these deal are unbelievable. these deals are so good for us. you are not going have companies leaving our country, firing everybody then selling their product back into the united states with no taxes. it s not going to ham anymore. happen anymore. thanks to our very strong position on tariffs, because i want them negotiate with us, we saved american aluminum and american steel companies. they are thriving. american steel is building plants all over the country. steel workers are back, and the miners are supplying the met lurthemetalurgic coal. are we going to get our steel from some foreign country? we need steel and aluminum. there are certain things you need. we are hiring a lot of people. our treasury is getting load up with money. billions of dollars will be flowing in because we charge 25% when they dump. when they dump steel, they want to put our steel companies out of business, then they sell us steel at prices that are so high, nobody wants to talk about that. nobody wants to talk about the jobs created, and nobody wants to talk about all the money that s flowing into the coffers of the united states of america. they don t like to talk about it. the people against it are usually having you go to these other countries, they have company there, too. they say we like free trade. i say some to congressmen, senators. so we have a country, take india. they want to make a deal. they call us. they didn t want to make a deal with anybody else. so take india. so you talk about free trade. so let s say they charge us 60% tariff on a product. for the same product when they send it in we charge them nothing. so now want to charge them 25 jeanine pirro or 20 or 10 or something. what do you think? that s not free trade, we don t like it. i say where are these people coming from? you have no idea how difficult it is. where are they coming from. i could give you others that are brutal how they take advantage of the stupidity. they just do whatever they want. but take india. they charge us 60 percent. we charge them nothing. when i say i m going to put a 25% tariff on to make it fairer, they say it s not free trade. i say where do you come from? a lot of the people fighting me on what i m doing have ownership of companies in other countries. remember that, please. or they are represented by lobbyists. the steel people love me. the coal people love me. many people love me. you know who loves me? our country has never done better. that s who loves me. [cheers and applause] so to give our workers and businesses just in finishing up, a level playing field republicans passed the biggest package of tax cuts and reforms in american history. we passed something else i love. right to try. you know what right to try is? that s where somebody is terminally ill. we have a pipeline of some of the great just products. and we couldn t get them. we couldn t use them. for 45 years we have been trying to get. right to try. somebody is terminally ill. they have to sign a clause and things. and they now don t have to travel to parts of the world. we pass veterans choice. gig us veterans choice, giving our veterans the right to see a private doctor if they are standing in line for four weeks. right? [cheers and applause] they couldn t get it passed. this has been going on for 45 years. veterans are our greatest people. these are people, any veterans here? veterans? it was very tough. 45 years they couldn t. instead of waiting in line for three weeks and dying in many cases, believe it or not. they start off, they are okay, they wait so long to become a doctor they end up dying. they go out and see a doctor, we pay the bill, it s great. we pass. we also passed landmark va accountability act so all these bad players in the va we fire them so fast when they are bad. you didn t have the right to fire anybody. they could do anything. i just signed legislation to completely, completely rebuild all of our military. i told you about that. and you know what? it s so important to me. so important to me. so important. we have tanks, we have ships, we have everything. so important. and at my direction the pentagon is working right now as we speak to create a 6th branch of the united states armed forces called the space force. right? space force. i went through the united states from the horrible one-sided iran deal, and iran is not the same country right now, folks. and they bert not do nuclear, they better not. not the same country. we have all recognized the true capital of israel. recently when i opened the american embassy in jerusalem. i have just come from a tremendously successful trip i did a lot of trips from the united nations to saudi arabia to china to u.k. european union, all over the world. every one of those means a lot of jobs and and lot of income coming into our country that nobody ever did before. nobody ever did it. i made clear we ll never sacrifice america s sovereignty to unelected, unaccountable foreign bureaucrats. i m not going to do it. we reject the ideology of globalism. and we embrace the doctrine you know what i m saying the doctrine of let s put it this way, we love our country. that s our doctrine. you can call it patriotism. but it s really the doctrine of we love our country. for years you watched as your leaders apologized for america. [crowd boos] president trump: now you have a president who is standing up for america. we are standing up for your values. we are standing up for west virginia. we are standing proudly for our national anthem. [cheers and applause] to continue our moment, to protect your family, your borders, your constitution, and your country, you need to get your friends, get your family, get your co-workers and get out and vote for patrick morrisey, get out and vote republican. and if you aren t registered, register right now. you have got to register here. and the deadline to register is october 16. heat to break up this by saying that. register. october 16. loyal citizens like you helped build this country. together we are taking back our country. and returning power to where it belongs to the american people. this great state was built by tough pioneer men and strong pioneer women. these brave west virginia patriots ventured out into the wilderness and up into the mountains to build a beautiful home, a life and a dream. they didn t have a lot of money, they didn t have a lot of luxury. but they all had one thing in common. they loved their families, they loved their country, and they loved their god. true. true. we stand on the shoulders of these courageous americans. your ancestors did not pour out their blood, sweat and tears so that we could sit at home while others tried to erase their legacy and destroy our proud american heritage. that s what the democrats are trying to do with their crazy policies. just like the pioneers and patriots who came before us, we are going to work, we are going to fight, and we are going to win for our families, for our flag, and for four freedom. the revolution that you began in 2016, and it was a revolution, and even these people will admit that. that was a revolution like they have never seen before. that was a revolution that was they came from the hills and they came from the valleys, they came from everywhere. at the end of that evening they said, i hate to tell you this, a lot of bad things are happening tonight for the democrats. that was one of the great evenings, not because of me, but because of you. that was one of the great evenings in the history of our country. and it s far from over it many only just beginning. we ll not bend, we ll not break, we ll never give in, we ll never give, we ll never back down. we ll never surrender. and we ll always fight on to victory, victory, victory. [cheers and applause] president trump: because we are americans, and our hearts bleed red, white and blue. we are one people. one family. and one glorious nation under god. and together we will make america wealthy again. we ll make-america strong again. we ll make america safe again. and we ll make america great again! thank you, west virginia, thank you! thank you! jesse: that was president trump in wheeling, west virginia rallying ahead of the mid-terms. here to react, dr. sebastian gorka, former 2012 presidential candidate and chairman of the america fighting backpack. herman cain and former intelligence analyst morgan ortagus. this is all in the backdrop of the kavanaugh situation. he had a little fun with dianne feinstein. i don t know if the audience totally remembers this. but diane was asked about leaking the dr. ford letter to the press and the president had a little fun with that. let s roll the tape and react. president trump: when you look at releases and leaks, then they say i didn t do it. i didn t do it. remember, dianne feinstein. did you leak? [crowd boos] president trump: remember her answer? did you leak the document? uh, uh, what? no. uh, no. i didn t leak. uh, well, wait, one minute. did we leak. no, no, we didn t leak. jesse: it s funny but it s not if youy. this is a #metoo situation. the importance of respecting the alleged accuser, the female is critical to maintaining her integrity and her peace of mind. and she didn t want her name out there, yet dianne feinstein or one of her colleagues obviously, because the chain of custody of the letter was established. leaked her name to everybody, and this hoisted this woman who didn t want to go public into the national spotlight and tortured her in front after live tv audience. that was a pretty intense attack on dianne. that handed hard. it was well deserved. it was either feinstein, the congressional staff or the lawyers. they did a huge disservice to her. everyone is talking about this fbi investigation how it need more time now. all of this could have happened with confidentiality under a present this which this poor woman didn t have to be prayed in front of millions and billions of people around the world. the attack was trough. but i think it was deserved. i m surprised that during the committee hearing feinstein didn t have a better response. i don t know how it happened. jesse: it didn t look good. he also took the opportunity to go after a 2020 contender cory booker who remember had this big spartacus moment where he thumped himself on the chest and was proud of himself. the president talked about that. let s listen. president trump: how about cory booker. did you watch the performance? he ran newark, new jersey into the ground. and now he wants to be president, right? what was the moment he said he had? i don t think so. i think we take kirk douglas in his prime. dr. gorka, what did you think about that? he was on form. he knocked it out of the park. when he gets off his teleprompter it s amazing. but to the serious side of this, think about what happened this thursday. a man who has a spotless, white, completely clean record for 50 years, within 11 days goes to being an upstanding godly man to be accused of potential gang rape and attempted murder. and the people who have put hip in the spotlight are a woman, feinstein, who for 20 years had a chinese spy on her payroll when she was on the intelligence committee of the senate. cory booker who admitted on the record to groping high school teenager. and a man called dick blumenthal who lectures the federal judge on lying and telling the truth when he repeatedly lied about being a combat veteran in vietnam. this is politics in 2018 and it should disgust all americans. if you look at social media, there is a lot of people who are angry who didn t vote for trump, and i think they are going to vote for trump and the republican ticket. jesse: the women i have spoken to recently are really aghast at what s been going on. they can see it can be unfair on the other side. you have seen hoaxes, and i m not saying ford is a hoax artist, but by the way the political machine worked when feinstein tapped ford s lawyer and said go to katz, this woman who is a socialist, a member of the resistance. it was too co-incidental, herman cain. to think a man with up a stellar rep case can come up in front of people with less than stellar reputations and have his integrity questions like that. obviously he s incredibly angry and upset and impassioned. now the left is saying he s too upset and angry and impassioned to be a balanced and impartial justice of the supreme court. they were never going to vote for him, and this is all a big stunt. what do you think? i agree with you. as we would say in the baptist church to dr. gorka s ask comment and the other comments about the laid yesterday, amen, amen, amen. number one. number two i just wanted them to know how much i appreciate their comments because they are absolutely right on. now, they have taken judge kavanaugh and tried to do what they call political character assassination and as dr. gorka said, i believe it many backfiring. i hear from people all the time. i see people. they are asking me by the. everybody who approaches me about what went on last week while the people of this country were held hostage for 12 days, 12 days they were held hostage. they described this in one word, despicable. jesse: you look at some of these polls in west virginia. people in west virginia want kavanaugh confirmed. ladies and gentlemen, we have to run. up next, unof bill clinton s accusers takes on the accusers. this is loma linda, a place with one of the highest life expectancies in the country. you see so many people walking around here in their hundreds. so how do you stay financially well for all those extra years?

i m trying to. get you to africa starts december twelfth on w. w. this is d w news live from berlin a security crisis in france president emmanuel mccall chairs an emergency meeting a day after a fuel tax protests turned violent he and his ministers debate whether to impose a state of emergency to prevent a recurrence of the worst civil unrest in more than a decade also on the program. g. twenty leaders agree on joint communique at their summit in argentina despite tensions over trade and climate on the sidelines u.s. president donald trump and his chinese counterpart xi jinping make a step towards defusing their trade war. and do one climate talks open in poland with calls for urgent action experts one time is running out to stop runaway global warming. i m edith to money thank you for joining us french president emmanuel mccall has held a crisis cabinet meeting as the government considers imposing a state of emergency a day after a fuel tax protest turned into riots across france across surveyed the damage in the center of paris streets after returning from the g twenty in argentina now authorities say some ten thousand protesters took part in protests in the french capital on saturday and more than four hundred were. arrested after clashes broke out its fast as west civil unrest in more than a decade. it up is lisa lewis has been covering the story in paris and i asked if any results of the meeting were known yet well we haven t had any announcement by the government just yet they were meeting for an hour and a half there was a long meeting and they better really think about what they re going to do next because pressure is growing the government has so far said we re going but you don t change anything to our plans but more and more people here are saying you know actually really really need to react to this otherwise it s going to explode even more people are talking about interaction of it and insurrection of the situation and more and more commentators also saying you know you really have to come back go back on that and measure that is a dance for you next year that is the fuel tax rise that was the trigger for this movement if my car doesn t change that at least temporarily if he doesn t say you know good we re going to push it back by at least a few months so that we can negotiate it s very difficult how this will actually come down situation so lisa what exactly is making this so difficult for the government to tackle. it s very complicated you ve got about one hundred thirty thousand people that demonstrated across france yesterday but the polls from a few days ago show that a lot of people a lot of the french eighty percent seventy percent actually supporting the movement and understand what these people are talking about this is the part of france that feels left behind by put issuance in paris obviously in my car has the image of a very arrogant president president who doesn t understand the needs of the people and his reaction to this crisis has just shown has underlined that very perception of things so this makes it more complicated obviously when you look at the demonstrations themselves you can also see as you you know you saw the pictures from yesterday so there are violent clashes and lots of people are now saying that the demonstrations were actually infiltrated by groups from the far right from the far left that are trying to cause mayhem so the government really has to do something to calm the situation down so with so much as seventy and fresh where can we expect things to go from here while the normal thing to do would be to negotiate but because this movement is leaderless at the moment it s very difficult to see who the government could talk to now at the different parts of the movement have now you know the different organizations in the regions patently trying to elect local leaders so these local leaders can go to paris and talk to my car but that is not really very fledged out yet fleshed out yet so we really are waiting to see where this will go overseas very important to talk to them and to find some measure to actually you know make that anger go away he said louis in paris thank you. after two days of marathon talks between the world s most powerful leaders the lead system g twenty summit wrapped up in argentina s capital on saturday night the big fault lines of a

he tipped his hat when we arrived and greet us very respectfully. after the revolution he ordered us women to stay in our rooms and work together. back then i decided never to be employed somewhere but rather to be my own boss and so that was a political story wasn t it but not really it was just a personal anecdote right with. the conflict over iran s nuclear program has left the country isolated. u.s. sanctions against tehran affect everyone the value of the iranian ryall against the dollar continues to decline making imported goods more expensive. prices are exploding on. intimate friday than i would i say medals a few weeks ago for six cents now they cost eighty cents. i hardly have any customers left women used to come to me and pay the equivalent of seven hundred euros for an evening gown i mean i don t have customers like that anymore and the poor vendors here they have even bigger problems. on the good people of the former latest project milo some money has partnered with a major management consultancy. her glossy fashion magazine lotus is now published in english as well as persian. exalt in iran and a number of select cities worldwide. some money is chief editor for her backer has an international client base. but this particular one i like it because it s about culture five star. is a new thing and this wonderful lady is the pioneer in fashion and she s the first designer to have a run you know. catwalk and fashion show when you want permits by the government. that was the money spent months negotiating with the authorities for permission to publish her designs in a magazine on sale overseas islamic fashion. clothes that comply with standards of modest dress. now is it twenty years and. by teaching. what color and that. is if you will of course. but the fight hasn t been won yet. the money recently signed a contract with an airline to design the flight attendants outfits elegant but by no means figure defining. the design or complains that she s not allowed to send models down a runway that s even allowed in afghanistan she says. that monica bhide. i would be so happy if i had an opportunity to present my work in public like designers all over the world to organize completely normal runway shows so that the fashion world can get to know my work. even if hundreds of women see me as successful personally i have no sense of satisfaction. yet that. small step by small step mom has a money is fighting for reform not by opposing the regime but by securing its permission to show her work. the younger generation in iran has less patience they abide by the rules but they find ways of carving out small slices of their own personal freedom. we meet up with some young iranians in no shah on the southern shore of the caspian sea some two hundred kilometers north of tehran. sealants. for seven years ago i decided to start saving up to buy my own car would i work in a cafe from nine in the morning until eleven in the evening then i d work in a garage making car headlamps until four in the morning. through the local role through goofy kind of. like. i came across these groups of people on instagram who do off roading i was really intrigued and started thinking about doing it myself. there wasn t anyone around here that i knew of organizing off road adventures. did you know that we kathleen moved here the whole. jump she did and his girlfriend should i have been together long they invite us along on one of their off road clubs tours and give us permission to film. it s brave of them to go on camera and for she s going to let herself be filmed without a headscarf. like the war and for young people getting to know each other over whether there are a lot of or just around so this is a perfect spot of a. co-worker. who you think that you deny usually meet up and go for a drive sometimes just for fifteen minutes or half an hour. every two weeks we ll be in a cafe. now and then we meet more regularly but we ve never spent more than two hours together and thought that s had to be done and that would be to me only. one quote. mosquito no shark is a student city and popular with tourists fleeing the stress of tehran. down here in the north the climate is mild the air fresh and the view of the mountain forests are spectacular. the club members have invested a lot of money in their off road vehicles to them off roading is more than a hobby it s a taste of freedom. they get together once or twice a month then head out to the countryside. chaudhary ex father is considered a martyr he died of wounds sustained in the iran iraq war. her mother and her brothers are strict with her they don t know that she s spending the weekend with her boyfriend. come on. i am most proud that on this earth i once told my brother the truth about where i was going but it was no good. i m forced to lie. of course i m worried i ll be found out. but you know normal everyday life is no fun. the worry makes list all the more exciting it makes me enjoy the trip all the more. feeling like you need to be secretive when you want to have a good time is actually cool. this is the first time she has come on a trip with me so i want to be as great as possible the first trip is important i want the first impression to be good if i could. just. see. all these young people were born after the islamic revolution they ve never known another iraq they re well educated and many of them have relatives who live abroad they know what s going on in the world at the very least from surfing the internet jumpseat and should i met online exchanging photos and phone numbers on instagram now and then the government blocks social media platforms but young people take it in stride. time to check out everyone uses social media in iran we couldn t survive a single day without it everyone knows how to get the apps you need to unlock sites that have been blocked so you can get back to surfing because it matters so much to the sap. socializing in. run usually happens behind closed doors or away from prying eyes like at this campsite deep in the woods. religious police raids used to be commonplace these days the regime mostly leaves people in peace within their own four walls but. these young people don t mind being filmed they say we just want to do what young people all over the world do it doesn t mean we don t love our country oh my god. by the vatican it s terrible that most documentaries show around in such black and white terms all despair and suffering and veiled women each other you d think we lived in a communist system and total darkness he has i never show that people in iran a happy to mind and enjoy life despite the restrictions we live with and i said he saw that in him no doubt. that. they re taking a risk that they re willing to live with the consequences for the sake of their personal freedom. that. that. was. was. the. for the next day a few more pictures before they head back home to post on instagram for their friends and to show the world that there is another iran it s not an easy place to live but it s their home. but i guess if i walk down the street like this even women would come up to me and complain it s not just the regime that strict not even the police. if a woman saw me in public without a headscarf and she come up to me and ask why i was going about like that oh wow that s the culture that developed after the islamic revolution if you re through. no one is happy with the way things are at the moment. sometimes when we re together we joke with our elders that it s their fault. and they say it s true but this is not the way things were supposed to turn out or that. you know. some of. the club is already planning its next off road tour the next escape from everyday life it s not easy for young people in iran to live their dreams. that our next stop is mashad a bustling city in the northeast of the country one of iran s most significant centers of religious and political power. it s a public holiday the anniversary of the martyrdom of a mom raising a descendant of the islamic prophet muhammad and the eighth shiite in. the shrine is managed by an extremely wealthy religious foundation an institution that wields a lot of power not only in mashad but also on the regime in tehran. oh i. crowds of pilgrims mark the public holiday by visiting the shrine every year sees some twenty seven million devout muslims visit mashad this conservative reactionary city is an unlikely home for a lively underground rock music scene but as we find out appearances can be deceiving. and dishes sound proofed to small sound studio in his parent s house to make sure the outside world doesn t hear what goes on in here. every day. for me being a heavy metal musician in mashad means living in a dead end if so little of everything i do i do purely for myself and it s not for public consumption. i only do it because of the pressure i feel. this is bob but that reinforces my belief in what i m doing. if it weren t for social media we wouldn t be here now we musicians are all connected via the internet. before i met the others on facebook i felt very lonely and lost. but when i realized there were many others in my position i realized i wasn t alone in the contact we have with one another and also a sense of envy and competition is what spurs us on. a jam session with the band out of nowhere in the basement of a tenement block on the city s outskirts someone always keeps watch outside in case the police show up but down here it looks like a band practice anywhere in the world. i normally if you play a while i play c. is that ok for you. there are thousands of rock musicians here in russia many come from middle class families like a. religious hardliners reviled the western rock they play. and they see heavy metal as the devil s work. on money making music usually lots of people think that metal heads worship the devil and that we re satanists of course we re not it and they think our music is aggressive and incitement to violence and from all that s completely wrong because when i look at us metal heads are the most peaceful people you can imagine so. but people have these fixed ideas which is a real shame with us of on. the . i ve seen lots of bands have their work censored for the authorities tell them that if they want to be approved they need to modify what they re doing i see that happening all the time but in the end the artist doesn t feel it s his own song anymore and doesn t want to play it as. our next meeting is with ray s ago harry who s the same ages and. he was just a boy when he decided he wanted to be a cleric. days ago he wears the black turban of the same descendants of the prophet mohammed. he s a cool a servant of the holy shrine of the memories a who works in the soup kitchen and helps visitors to the mosque. and was going to join friends and i are here to provide everyone who visits with a place to find rest and something to eat. the pilgrims have come a long way and are thirsty and often hungry. they come to my shot out of love and devotion to him on raising. we live here i see it is my duty to serve these people as a. by the judge for they move. on the anniversary of him raises martyrdom has gripped by religious fervor his followers engage in archaic rituals flagellating themselves with chains to mimic his suffering. young men carry the heavy ensign of. memories are staggering under its weight. had i. was even if these martyrs are dead that we can reach out to them. they are here and that there is much we can ask of the a mom s great spirits that good to give and they can fulfill our requests because they rule over the universe that means that boy john said that is what the shia believe in the convoy they have a mission a job many of us come to the a mom s mausoleum to reach out to his spirit and to show respect is missing here by then issuing death. praise or go harry s lives in studies in the amman raise a shrine complex. it encompasses a mosque and the muslim seven courtyards a seminary and islamic university libraries and seminar rooms. i go myself i m going to when we re unable to change the minds of young people who do not share our faith then we organize events specifically for them so as not to lose contact with them just as we offer them jobs taking photos or video recording events or working as drivers we do it to make sure we keep in touch with them i m pretty sure that even high libya vast battle got automation. but we arrange a meeting between reza go hurry the young cleric and under a rock musician and they re both twenty seven they both grew up in mashad. but the two in have a completely different worlds and couldn t be more different still they talk to each other as openly as the constraints of iranian society allow. for thirty years for you so long all sorts of musicians perform here in the park issue but when we apply for a comment we re timed out and we. usually on the grounds of the way we look because the authorities think will intimidate people what s your opinion which. sometimes you might meet a cleric who doesn t even know all the rules of his own religion let alone how musicians such as yourself think. and that s the problem for us that we know far too little about one another so there s instant animosity and. one reason why there are so many hard rock and heavy metal musicians in mashad is the pressure we face. i m always being told what i m not allowed to do i need to write songs to express how i feel and so do many others. and that s the basic principle of rock and metal the more pressure there is the more explosive the reaction. to news the music is rooted in the human problems social suffering these problems can t be ignored. i can t just grabbed on to shape by the collar and order him to get over these problems. that s not how it works. for the sharpness all i ve got there are not many like raised. another cleric would have had very different things to say that was the rule for this the idea that we might all sit down together and talk about ways to improve things is absurd. given the current circumstances it just wouldn t happen hamas militia show. at the fault and. the two men are unlikely to resolve their differences and will most likely never meet again. and. move the huts one isn t. you know i m sure i want to spend the rest of my life in mashad at one point i ll leave but that doesn t mean i ll forget my home i ll come back one day and work in the cultural sector and music or something similar. weapons against or maybe i ll open a music school. but only once i ve gained experience elsewhere i will. show it is a city steeped in both religious devotion and social despair a city that at once repels its children and embraces them. we leave mashad in the north and head south to homo s island in the persian gulf. u.s. sanctions against iran have a special significance here it s a place where the country s international problems play out alongside its domestic once. more i m going to formalize was once the most important port along the maritime stretch of the silk road the island is on the threshold between east and west and used to be beautiful and wealthy whoever controlled hormones island controlled the seas the trade routes from india over africa and the suez canal. on other stories wasn t about to. raise a cooler ronnie s sings of love and suffering he grew up in poverty on homo s island then left and went to tehran where he launched a successful career as a musician. but yet. today he and his band are famous in iran but he hasn t forgotten where he came from and often returns home to the persian gulf where the arabian peninsula feels nearer than tehran. here the many cultural. influences of the countries along the silk road are still in evidence. their women wear color and the traditional face masks of arab iranians who live in the coastal regions. but these people are poor they feel forgotten by their government and ignored by the rest of the world you see the. razor uses his celebrity to organize aid projects here on homo s island enlisting the help of other artists from across the country. in. the city to go we have always been very active here but it s not about self promotion we ve organized cultural festivals to attract more tourism to hormuz to provide the locals with an income so they can have enough to eat so that they don t have to resort to smuggling and risking their lives. riza takes us to meet a friend of his family a fisherman. said i was. his generation sacrificed their youth their families for this country they lived through the revolution and the iran iraq war when they came home they wanted to work so they did what they d always done they worked as fishermen and traders. you would. have to rock mine is fifty as a soldier in the one nine hundred eighty s. he was the victim of a chemical attack along with thousands of others he still suffers from the consequences today. because his medical file was lost he can t claim any kind of state support. that. if i hadn t been wounded in the fighting there would have been a prisoner of war i would be better off now then i would at least get a monthly pension. the state would have given me a house my chilled. and would have work instead we have nothing the children of freed prisoners of war have senior positions we don t we re doing the same hard work we did before. the. family are preparing a special dinner for raising and the visitors from german television. because it s such a special occasion the women are cooking over the wood fire outside but at the gas stove in the kitchen. they ve served up a feast spicy rice with lentils and prawns fried fish and fresh salad. with their here and foremost we re sitting on the biggest natural gas reserves in the world but the people here have nothing gas from formalises transported to carom on terror and tabriz. you the whole country gets gas from hormones you know but here on the island there aren t even any pipelines people like up dollar a month myself and others are forced to take gas cylinders to filling stations and carry them home on our backs so that the women can cook you know. it s not as though that was going on where they were for. as children they would always run off when their mothers wanted to send them to get gas. the cylinders were so heavy. oh no dear residents of hormuz the price of gas is going up. there is none for now . please do not knock. sometimes there s no gas for a whole month if the weather is stormy and the ships can t sail it s especially bad in winter. that is the one where that s what life is like here the mother. didn t go for. bush no gas but at least there s time to chat and grumble about the sorry state of affairs. she. left to run on works day and night to ensure he catches enough to feed his family. his son can t get married he tells us because the family can t afford to pay for the wedding. and he has no idea what will happen when he s too old to work so a lot of their fishing has taken a turn for the worse in recent years the seas are over fish to because three years ago the chinese were awarded industrial fishing licenses fish and shrimp stocks have fallen dramatically as a result. of. the rock mine couldn t live from fishing alone so he began ferrying goats and fabrics to the arabian peninsula and smuggling cigarettes back to iran. eventually he was caught and served a lengthy jail sentence for smuggling they arrest a few poor people and then brand everyone in the south as smugglers of course smuggling is an issue but now there are sanctions against the oil trade and life will become even harder people here need to look after themselves and think about the future we have to come up with something. very well so one of them will be. but fishing is the only job he s ever known. he only sells the best of the catch and keeps the rest for his family. today he sells just two hundred fifty grams of king prawns. today was terrible. i ve even had to pay for fuel out of my own pocket. but still i m grateful. if the government would pay a bit more attention to this rage that a miracle could happen. i m serious. people here in the south are very hospitable despite the poverty. there is amazing heritage here and they look after it well. that s something that s wonderful and rare joy. but the iranian government is more interested in the strait of hormuz a short sea corridor between iran and oman of major strategic significance. one third of global oil production passes through it every day. shipments that tehran could block if it so wished. the. decades of isolation and the controversy over iran s nuclear program have also left their mark on is fun the most popular tourist site in iran. the historic city on the edge of the desert is known as the pearl of persia. one hundred square is unesco world heritage site and draws visitors from all over the world. the carpet store owned by the huggy family is a local landmark. of clothing and we ve been decorating our floors with carpets for centuries. but they re more than decorative. carpets play a big role in our lives and babies are born on them and we sleep on them. life unfolds on persian rugs even if these days we sit on chairs and eat at tables . before the revolution this where was teeming with tourists as far as the eye could see it was a bustling place. but it s not like that anymore i don t want to be negative but i have happy memories of those times i wish things would change. in the past the famous people from all over the world would visit the square with their entourages . they would put barricades up around the square and there would be public celebrations. nothing like that has happened for ages. i wish the country would open its doors to the world again. the huggy family has been hand knotting persian carpets for one hundred twenty years their customers have included kings and presidents. faisal know how he is a master of his craft before he begins making a carpet he first sketches a design on paper. his workshop is just around the corner from nash. now seventy six has worked together with mr for the car for fifty years they ve been friends since their school days. this is what we want to. be for the carpet is not it the designers create what s called a cartoon a sort of rugged map on paper. each square represents a single not. we used paint and brushes and calculate each individual not to do that if we mark exactly how many knots and which color will be knotted her rogue. the secret of a good carpet is mathematics. next door the next generation is hard at work they are not using paper and paint brushes but touch screens and digital pens. sons are also carpet designers carpet making has traditionally been a male dominated industry but he s also training a young woman. this way color can be corrected with one simple click but it s still meticulous work. even on the computer each individual not has to be marked. whether the designs are drawn up on paper or the computer screen they end up to sectored into pieces and stuck on wood to be used as a reference by the rather daughters in the workshop. and with. this one will be forty square metres. eight by five. it s a work of art. because it s a work of art i can t name a price. it s only when it s finished and is appraised by experts that a price will be set. it s one of a pair the first is already finished. the women have been working on them for two years. i think they ll need another seven or eight months. and according to the book if you want to be successful you must be creative. that s what i tell young people that s what i tell my students all the co here is a very talented she ll be qualifying as a master crafts woman soon but it may give the. twentieth another day but in time as i grew up in a family of doctors lawyers and engineers to begin with they didn t want me to study art but once i graduated from school all of a sudden they let me later i found out that my grandmother had argued my case she was very interested in kaput she died when i was still in my first year of my studies in the us. i think of her every day when i work here i count on one housemate. phrase all hugging he has three sons they all studied abroad computer technology architecture art and design. but they all came home to carry on the family tradition they learned from their father and develop their own styles these days their designs are on sale in the shop the most valuable rug is worth thirty thousand euros and was made by faisal a huggy himself it boasts one hundred forty knots per square metre and is made of fine silk it s beautiful but he hasn t found a buyer. by the in quite a hotel room after president trump imposed sanctions sixty percent of the people in this industry lost their jobs at the club we re no longer allowed to export our carpets we can t trade abroad. mr trump thinks he s fighting our government but all he still. going is destroying the livelihoods of normal people. and then he s so proud of himself and what he thinks he s achieving. things all huggy says thinking about iran s economic plight makes him sad. he goes out to his pomegranate orchard whenever he can it revives his spirits here he can recover his optimism that his children and his country might one day have a brighter future for. the pomegranate it is a wonderful fruit look how close the seeds are to one another. just like the people of iran with my common ground it is sweet inside but the skin is bitter like our current economic situation. but it s important we stick together and really we are very warm hearted be able to this nanny. a. little. closer. closer. look at the name of. reliable data in the gulf. news in the distance for the closest
